Dreadlocks are a common issue that can lead to hair loss and damage. To maintain and repair your dreadlocks, it is essential to establish a regular maintenance routine, keep your locks hydrated, use techniques like palm rolling and wrapping, and seek professional assistance when needed. A free tutorial on how to make a dreadlock/fall in under 120 minutes can be found on the Greatlocs website.
To prevent thinning of hair where the dreadlocks meet the scalp, it is important to rule out natural thinning due to pattern. To prevent this, cut off the old ends of your dreadlocks, wash and condition your hair, and soak them in hot water for 10 minutes. Start at the ends and untangle one dreadlock at a time.

wow, you’re a gift to all in locs.. I truly hope the pros out here will learn your wonderful techniques. with my shoulder issues, i will have to let someone help me now, but i don’t know who to trust. i watched you closely, and you worked without the slightest tug on the man’s hair,.. you, my friend are who i’m looking for! lots claim to be technicians, but few are. i look forward to learning from you to continue my journey on my own. gracias
Thank you for showing the many techniques we can use to repair locs. I’ve been afraid of going to a new loctician or returning to an old one because I never seemed to get the repair I was looking for. Today, I got my crochet needles and tomorrow I will be repairing my locs myself. If you want something done right you do it yourself, right? And it’s great to save money and to learn a new skill. I’m going to loc my son’s hair myself if I am successful and satisfied with my own work. This article was truly informative and greatly helpful, as I have thinning locs at my crown due to having a genetic form of alopecia. I have scarring as well, however, getting locs has grown my hair at my crown tremendously!! I love being loc’d. It’s freeing!!
Just subscribed. Definitely appreciate your articles in doing my locs. Had to reattach and still need to practice on the small needle, but the latch hook was what you used and encouraged me to do the same. I ordered smaller latch hooks and now my locs won’t have the frizz at the base by the scalp. Thank you. Looking forward to more articles on care and tips. Hope you have great success
This is awesome! Thank you for sharing. I had to cut my locs from post-partum thinning, I had to let my scalp breathe and reset basically to be healthy enough to hold locks, and now I am reattaching them. This article is great to follow! – It looks like the clients locs are thinning because his new growth/ scalp isn’t strong enough to carry the heaviness of his locs. His new growth isn’t as thick as it needs to be to hold the locs. He needs to reduce the weight of the locs which means to cut them shorter, or he will continue to run into thinning… unless its alopecia.
Hello Martin, I wish you well AND all your family, my brother, I will send you my best regards. Once again, I want to thank you 🙏 for the wonderful work you do in society. I ask God to bless you even more, to live longer and to continue the work you are doing. WITH the support of the articles today, I am a loctician, I want you to make a article where you recover your dreads, so that you can completely remove them.
Thank you! Thank you! Not only did you explain the best way to repair and reattach my locs, but also enlighten me on why my locs were thinning and falling out around my edges. I always wear a scarf (tightly) around my edges, and I now understand it causes tension also. I’ve subscribed and will look you up on IG and follow you there, too! Again, thank you for such valuable information!!❤
Very good content. Informative and the flow of the tutorial was PERFECT! You didn’t drag it on and on but gave enough information to understand. Never once did I have to rewind because I wasn’t clear on something and didn’t fast forward because you were going on and on. Again, great instructor. Appreciate you.
Man I wish you were local because I need you in my locs. lolol Wonderful job. My locs are also thinning on the top and I don’t wear a cap, occasionally a head wrap but that’s it. I also don’t do much breading etc because I noticed most people are way too tight. I was thinking of cutting my hair after 22 years but thanks to your article I’m going to hold off.
